Yesterday evening, about four "clock, the Isa bella, Captain Itoss, and the Alexander, Lieu tenant PARRY, arrived at Deptford. All the per sons belonging to these two vessels are well in health ; but our Correspondent, who saw them at the time they sailed, informs us that there is a great alteration for the worse, in the looks of the men and officers. The wonderful Esquintaux has conic back in the Isabella. He is in good health and spirits ; and, on his arrival, he shook hands very cordially with several of his old ac quaintances, who went on board of the ship (Herald.) The following article, which we have taken from a - Belfast Paper, is an illustration of the hut! Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY'S Penal Theory, which, though founded in that benevolence that was so prominent a part of his estimable character, does not seem to be practically efficacious : " Bleach-green robberies continue to be perpe trated in the most daring manner. On the night of Monday last the drying loft of Messrs. APCance and Stouppe, at Suffolk, near this town,was broken into and robbed of six pieces of 5-4th sheeting and three pieces of 44th yard-wide linen, Lull finished.—An advertisement offered a reward of tiny pounds for the discovery of the offenders.— The frequency of similar depredations of late has induced many persons to change their opinions respecting the propriety of the alteration which was made in the law, substituting transportation in place of a capital punishment for this climt:. The change was made principally on the recom mendation of linen bleachers themselves, who conceived that the certainty of the punishment of transportation, would operate more powetfully in deterring offenders ; and also by removing from the breast of prosecutors those feelings of com passion which were ap to prevail when the law entailed the penalty of death as the consequence of conviction." SINGULAR OCCURRENCE.-The fol:owing cir cumstsncc is of such a peculiar description as to ' render its coincidence not Unworthy of notice : A Tobin, during the late mild wea,her, was seen to hover and alight constantly near the Trafalgar, a new ship of 106 guns, 1)101(14; in the Dock yard at Chatham, to commemonte the glorious defeat of our enemies by the heroic and lamented NELSON. Curiosity was excited by this frequency of the bird's visits, when it was discovered that she had formed a nest iu the slip, and had nearly completed her labours. The notions of the bird were purposely observed, and on the morning of the 21st of lest month, the anniversary of the victory, she laid her first egc, and subsequently five others. The singularit► of the event, and ►he lateness of the year, caused much curiosity. By some careless accident tie nest, with the eggs, was destroyed, but the sittution is preserved, stir pointed out to all. DREADFUL FIRE.—Las night, about a quarter past ten o'clock, the inhabitants of Cornhill were thrown into a state of consternation ind anxiety by the cries of " Fire !'"l'heir fears, howeve; were shortly after augmented by perceiving an alarming hory of dame issuing from the premises of Mr. Carroll, Lonny-Office-keeper, No. 7, Corn hill. The dames continued tr rage with such violence as to threaten the destruction of he adjoining houses before a sufficient space of time had eapsed for the engines to arrive, during which time it had couniunicated to the premises of Messrs. Smiths and Co. cuters, in Lombard-street, which are situated immediately behind those of Mr. Carrot, as also to the Offices adjoining it o Cornhill, which are those of Mr. Martin and the Globe Insurinee Office, the latter of which is u nderg o ing alterations andenlargetnents, the necessary scaf folding for which purpose rad caught fire just as the engines began to arrive. At this Period the fire had a most alarming appearance, as it was raing both in Lombard-street and Cornhill at the same timi, particularly in the latter. The arrival of the firemen, lowever, was soon evident With their usual alacrity they ore down a great part of the scab foldinir in front of the Cube Office, and having by this time a plentiful supply of wirer, they 'dyed their engines so suc ce.t.sfully, as in a short the arrested the further progress of the devouring ulement. At a quarter past one this morning it was got under. Th damage is chiefly confined to Messrs. Carroll and Smiths', ,re former of which is entirely con sumed. The Globe )!lice and Mr. Martin's are also da maged, but not matvally. POETRY.

In the account of our 'WC QUEEN'S arrival f • •w Harwich to London, as stated in the Papers, a very material circun►srance is omitted, which I saw. The road was lighted op with lamps by DARE and DURDEN', limner), of Charing-Cross, which astonished the QUEEN more than any tl►ing else, except the beauty of the Lidies who at tended her. THE EYE OF TRUTH. MONUMENT OF BURNS. FOR THE SUN. Ma. EDITOR,—..YOII signified, in your intro duction to the Letter of the Secretary for this in tended memorial of departed Genius, that you would decline the insertion of all farther cotn►nu uieations on the subject, till you heard the result of the meeting of the Stewards, whom the Secre tary announced his intention to convene. The Letter in question appeared in your Paper of the 3d inst., and was dated the 2d. No,v, Sir, you will solely allow that sufficient time has elapsed for the result of the meeting to be known, and, therefore, unless those Stewards come forward with a plain statement, their characters must be exposed to the most disgraceful suspicions. As a Subscriber to the intended Monument, I have a right to know how my money was disposed of, and as many of my friends is ere subscribers also, I write with their authority for the same purpose. The character of BURNS stands too high it, the estimation of his countrymen, for them to suffer his memory to be neglected, particul a rly as a large Subscription was obtained for the purpose of doing honour to that Genius of which Scot land is laudably proud. The Stewards n►ay be very hones( men, but they do not seem to be alive to reputation. It I recollect aright, the Se• cretary stated at the Dinner that upwards of 3501 was collected upon that occasion, and that many more subscriptioos ►were expected to follow. The Stewards are bound then to account for all that . . • • .• .• • has been collected for what they stated as " A NATIONAL DESIGN," and they owe to the Public and their own characters a full explanation.— I am surprised, and so are many other Subscrib ers, that a list of their names, as promised, has not been published ; aod 1 arn no less surprised that, as the matter has been the subject of gene ral conversation among my countrymen, that the COMMITTEE at Dumfries have been wholly silent on the occasion. I therefore trust, Air. Editor, that you will not think me too hasty in obtruding on you again, after so long an interval, since the Stewards have given no explanation, and have quietly submitted to those surmises and imputa tions which they might naturally expect to arise from such an apparent disregard of character, and contempt of public opinion. They may be assur ed, Mr. Editor, that I shall not suffer the matter to drop without full and satisfactory intormation. Permit me to conclude with a repetition of some of my queries, and the addition of others.—What is become of 'he 3501. collected at the Dinner ? Were any more sums subscribed ?—Has the Ar chitect, who I since find was a Mr. Lint, been paid for the Mausolelilit ?--Has the COMMEMO RATION DINNER been paid tor ?—Has any portion of the Subscription Money been transmitted to the COMMITTEE at Dumfries ?—Can it be suppos ed that a subject, so dear to the feelings of Scot land, will be suffered ,o sink into oblivion, after it has excited so zealous and so honourable a tes timony of national taste and liberality ?

STOLEN CHILD.--A letter was received yester day at the Public Office, Bow -street, from Good win, the constable, who is employed to pursue Charles Replica and the child of Mr. Horsley, accompanied by Mr. Horsley's nephew, to identify the child. The letter is dated from Calais, and stated that they bad pursued them to that place. They arrived there on Sunday, and they had no doubt that they had traced Charles Kennett and the child to have arrived at Calais on the Wed nesday after Rennett stole the child on Sunday evening se'nnight, and that he had taken his place in a diligence, and was supposed to have gone to Dunkirk. CRUELTY TO AN INFANT.—Yesterday an inquest was held at the Monmouth Head, in Hemming row, near St. Martin's-lane, upon the remains of Martha Picarello, not more than four years old, daughter of Mr. Picarello, of Castle -street, near the King's Mews. It appearing that the conduct of the child's aunt, Mrs. Hill, to whuse care she was entrusted, was very reprehensible, the Jury returned] a verdict of Manslaughter against her. She was immediately conveyed, in a coach, to Tothill-fields Prison. On Saturday last the birth of a Son and Heir to the Right Honourable Lord Viscount CLivtt was commemorated by Jolla O. Herbert, Esq. of Dolevorgan, by the rowing of a very fine fat ox, and several fat sheep, which were dis tlibuted, with a cart load of bread, among two hundred poor families in Kerry and its environs ; and a hogshead of strong beer among the popu lace. The Kerry band attended ; and at 1411 there was , grand display of fireworks
